I have a piece with 3 systems which looks bunched on the page - I'd like to separate them a little more (the piece is part of a book, set in a bookpart). Any pointers would be great (I've been scrolling through the manuals all afternoon and can't seem to find something that works...) Have you used the manuals matching your version of LilyPond? The ways of specifying spacing have changed in recent LilyPond versions, so it is important to consult a manual with a version matching your LilyPond program. If you can't seem to find something that works in the manuals, it may very well be that _indeed_ it does not work because of a version mismatch of your information. -- David Kastrup ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Hi Adrian, You wrote +++ This is probably a dumb question, but can someone please tell me where to find info/examples on (or explain how to) increasing the system/system spacing. +++ Try Notation Reference Section 4.1.4 a search for system-system will help, maybe! :) Regards Bill ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

The Reply-To header is set so that replies go to the sender rather than the list, so one must reply all to include the list which results in some people getting two copies of the e-mail- one from the sender and one from the mailing list. This is only true if you enable the send me multiple copies in your mailing list preferences. I recommend turning that off so that you only get one copy of each email. I think that Marc's question was about getting *all traffic* from lilypond-user, not about receiving multiple copies of each email. @Marc: yes, that's how this mailing list is supposed to work (i.e. everyone gets all emails). You may want to set up email filtering or, if you plan to be an active user, create a separate email address for LilyPond email. hope this helps, Janek ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

A pointer: what you need is described somewhere in Chapter 4 of Notation Reference (http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/spacing-issues), i don't remember where exactly). Be sure to use Lilypond version matching the documentation, as David already said. hth, Janek ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: System/System spacing
2012/10/13 Adrian Oehm spa...@hinet.net.au: Hi This is probably a dumb question, but can someone please tell me where to find info/examples on (or explain how to) increasing the system/system spacing. Suppose we have this score: \score { \new Staff \repeat unfold 100 b1 } \paper { #(set-paper-size a5) } And you want systems to be more spaced out by a minimum amount of 20 staff-spaces. Add this to the paper block: system-system-spacing = #'( (basic-distance . 20) ) More complex settings are possible, check out the documentation for vertical flexible paper variables. This is an example: system-system-spacing = #'((stretchability . 3) (basic-distance . 20) (minimum-distance . 10) (padding . 5)) This part of our documentation is correct and complete, but I agree in that more examples would be very welcome. -- Francisco Vila.

Re: System/System spacing
Hi all Thanks for your replies - they all pointed me in the right direction. After a nice hot shower I realised part of my issue was the setting of ragged-bottom = ##t in the \paper block of the \book. What I didn't realise then (but have worked out now :-) ) is that I can put a \paper block into each \bookpart and then control the system-system spacing basic-distance there... And it works.

Re: midi and repeated notes
Jean-Alexis Montignies ja at montignies.info writes: When presented with a note off and a note on at the same time with the same note number, my sequencer does not repeat the note. I think the sequencer should repeat the note. There is some argument about how to interpret overlapping unisons in a midi file, but if the note-off comes before the note-on it should certainly repeat. LilyPond version 2.14 had some problems in this area, but I think they are now solved : http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1647 Possibly the discussion there, and related issue 1648, might inspire you to find a solution? ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
